A blast suddenly occurred, but its sound was completely masked by the waterfall ahead.
A cave passage appeared, and a black-clad person with a mask and hood walked out and stopped at the edge. Jacob looked at the falling water ahead, which was dark; that could only mean there was no light outside, nighttime.
However, Jacob wasn't bothered by it since his vision was almost at the level of night vision, and he assumed that once his hunger was gone, he would not have to worry about darkness either.
'This place was really excellent for hiding. A pity I need to abandon it so soon.' Jacob sighed ruefully before he jumped ahead with full force, leaving a cracked cave entrance behind.
Thereby, Jacob's figure directly shot past the small waterfall, and he appeared right above a river stream, and because of the force, he was still moving forward. It was like he was flying.
'I'm definitely stronger…' Jacob's lips curled up behind the mask as he enjoyed the feeling of floating.
But it didn't last long as after fifty meters, he started to fall and directly entered the river below. This river was actually one of the river branches of the Great Star River.
If he continued to travel beside this river, he would end up in the Great Star River. But Jacob is not planning on leaving the Rare Plains yet. At least not until he figured out about the Magic.
Since he already knew about the Epic, Unique, and terrifying Legendary Ranks, he didn't want to overestimate himself and get killed by moving forward without having any knowledge about Magic.
It was pretty easy to guess that Magic was an essential part of the higher species and was also needed if someone wanted to evolve further.
So, Jacob was planning to live in the central region of the Rare Plains, far away from the Freedom Plains and Wild Nation, since those two regions would be at each other's throats right now.
As for living in the wilderness, he didn't need to because, with the GPS map of the rare plains, Jacob also got all the location information in the Rare Plains, which was hilariously large.
But the most crucial location he got on the map was the location Dark City in the central region!
Jacob was quite surprised when he saw the Dark City in this place. He never thought it was located so far away from the Freedom Plains. If he had searched for it on his own, he might've never been able to locate it.
Nevertheless, he was planning on going to the Dark City since that place was much more reliable than other organizations, and he could also freely trade materials there.
While he was heading there, Jacob was planning to hunt as well as evaluate his rank in the Zodiac Warrior Alliance. Of course, he didn't forget about his permanent membership.
Especially after his encounter with SAAI, he knew these three hegemonies were the best 'markets' for him after a champion shop. Furthermore, he needed to make ZC and a huge amount of it so that he won't fall into a pensive state like in the champion shop.
Jacob then left the river and entered the forest ahead. He opened his Star Watch virtual projection and determined his location and then his destination, which was the Dark City.
It was four months away from his current position, and it was deep into the magic beast forest, probably in the core area.
'What a bunch of lunatics to build this city right in the middle of magic beasts' nests.' He thought wryly.
Afterward, he opened the Zodiac Warrior Alliance Mission Application to see if the missions were still the same or had changed.
'Welcome to Zodiac Warrior Alliance Mission Application!
'Now corresponding missions according to your rank can be chosen from the star watch application, and a warrior rank can be improved directly through the star watch!'
'Zodiac Warrior Alliance ID: Faceless Ancient
'Current Rank: 1-Star Nightmare Warrior Knight (Reserve Zodiac Warrior)
'Next Rank: 2-Star Nightmare Warrior Knight
'Mission'
Jacob clicked on the mission section without hesitation.

Jacob was content when he saw the missions were the same. But he felt pity that he couldn't hunt down Dark Beings here, or he could amass a high number of ZC.
Nevertheless, he knew better than to be greedy. Dark Beings were nothing but trouble, and he was content with magic beasts and raising his ranks.
Furthermore, he wanted to see if he would be picked by the alliance to take into a higher plain if he cleared all the Nightmare Warrior Knight Ranks, according to Nixon.
Then Jacob remembered something, opened the Alliance Market, and tried opening the Combat Techniques again.
Last time he was shunned because his star watch didn't have a mana detection function, but this star watch was far above any star watch present in the Rare Plains.
Now the question was if he had mana or not. Still, he was quite anticipatory.
However, he frowned darkly when,
"You have no Mana. Therefore, this section cannot be opened!"
